                         C5
So ill dig a hole in my room
     D5                   C5         G5
From Birmingham and back again for you
                                    C5
In the end they say we?ll see the truth
           D5       C5                G5
What a shocking beauty we can both abuse
                            C5
So I folded my hands into a bird
    D5                C5
The shadows made you laugh
               G5
They made you sunburned
                                  C5
And I stitched my faith into your shirt
              D5         C5              G5
To make sure nobody but me was getting hurt
                               C5
And you love being cast as the fool
     D5            C5            G5
In a movie no one ever pays to sit through
                               C5
Just calm down it will be over soon
          D5              C5                 G5
And god I wonder what it is I?d do without you


B5     C5                       G5
Do you really like being alone?
B5     C5                       D5
Do you really like being alone?
C5
La di da da da da

G5
                                 C5
And the lord made me confront my past
              D5          C5         G5
We asked each other to explain the mess
                                C5
I believed with enough good I?d mend
        D5              C5             G5
But any good I had was always simply tempered
                                   C5
And I tried hard to sing like they did
        D5                  C5         G5
With my arms raised in the air I was praising
                                    C5
You said that when we died it would send
         D5          C5               G5
But even baby Jesus knew that I was faking


B5     C5                      G5
Do you really like being alone, Goddamn of course you don?t
B5     C5                      G5
Do you really like being alone?
B5     C5                      A5
Do you really like being alone?
                                   G5
Wouldn?t blame you if you went back home
                  C5
And got an actual job
                    G5
And you kissed your wife and your two daughters
                C5
Like I wished I could
                         E5
And I think that we?d be free
                      C5         D5        G5
Oh my god I think you finally feel free


B5      C5                     G5
I don?t really like being alone

God, of course I don?t
B5      C5                      G5
I don?t really like being alone
B5      C5                      A5
I don?t really like being alone
                            G5
I think I might just go back home
                  C5
And get an actual job
                G5
Stop selling my soul to the devil
                C5
He buys so much merch from us
                        E5
And I think he?d set us free
                  C5
Yeah I think he?d cut the chains
        D5                G5
And set you and me free


B5     C5                     G5
Do you really like being alone?
B5            C5                      G5
Cause I don?t really like being alone
B5     C5                      A5
Do you really like being alone?
                             G5
I think I might just go back home
                  C5
And get an actual job
                G5
And tell both my redneck neighbors
               C5
To bring their dogs inside
                     E5
And I could get some sleep
                    C5
Cause I think all I need
            D5
Is a decent night sleep

G5
